What a crock of BS. Here's what each income group pays (effective tax rate after all the supposed "tax cuts for the rich" have been applied) in federal income tax. You're looking for the light blue bars in the chart on page 7 of this document:

Less than 5 months.

2021: America begins the long task of repeairing the damage.

Just like we had to do when Dubya left DC.

There's a pattern emerging.

All because of a chinese virus, which Trump had nothing to do with.
Americans aren't stupid, they aren't blaming Trump for covid-19.

There are things Trump can be blamed for, like not taking strong enough action to end the riots in democrat run cities.

Oh yes, there’s a pattern alright ... a pattern of silly people blaming the aftermath of a deadly worldwide pandemic on one man.

Cognitive dissonance.

Trump's role in this is sending a significant portion of the country into a self-destructive tantrum.

Don't you think we need someone who is going to take the bull by the horns, accept responsibility and find ways to get things done. This blame shifting game is poor (non-existent) leadership.

I think Trump does a pretty crap job with accountability for sure.

I just happen to think that Biden would be even worse.

Really? What has he taken responsibility for? Every time he is not happy with something, he finds someone else to blame.
